Exactly what to grab at the store — whole units, no guessing at "half an onion."

  • 6 medium potatoes
  • 1 onion
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • Paprika, salt, pepper
  • Shredded cheese, optional
  • Fruit cups, side

How to Make It

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add potatoes in a single layer, don't stir for 4–5 minutes so they crisp.
  3. Add onion, paprika, salt, pepper; stir occasionally, cook 12–15 min until potatoes are tender and golden.
  4. Push hash to one side, crack eggs into the empty space, cover, cook to your liking.
  5. Top with cheese if using, and serve straight from the skillet.
  6. Serve with fruit cups on the side.

No-Time-For-That Tip: Leaving the potatoes alone is the whole trick — stir too soon and hash browns turn to mush instead of getting crispy.
